An aroma-generating flavor composition is described which will generate desirable aromas when a food and/or a package is subjected to microwave radiation. The composition comprises an aroma-generating material which is either a sugar alone or in combination with an amino acid source. Also, the composition contains an effective amount of a microwave susceptible material in conductive heat transfer relationship with the sugar and/or amino acid source, the microwave susceptible material when irradiated with microwave energy provides sufficient heat to cause a chemical reaction thereby generating desirable aromas.
